Re: 2013 non-Colts thread

So no RB is averaging 100ypg this year. No one is that close either honestly. LeSean McCoy leads the league in rushing with 777 yards on the season which is 86.3 ypg. AP is highest ypg at 88.9. If no one averages 100 ypg it will be the first time that has happened since 2007. Kinda crazy. Has the NFL just gotten that pass happy?

Re: 2013 non-Colts thread

That's not the way to toughen somebody up. That's the way to tear them down. I mean.....even insulting his mother.....please. Some guys just by their personality can't just let comments and actions like these just bounce right off. They carry it around with them and it ultimately affects their self worth. Some people are just more sensitive than others. Doesn't matter what size they are.

I wish I could thank it more than once. Some people are not thick skinned and could be bothered by something other wouldn't. Yet you will have some people saying "Ah he's soft, grow a pair" and other BS. Wake up, people are not all alike in their demeanor and character.

I understand that NFL locker rooms are not like any workplace but doesn't mean people who are more sensitive to some things will change and adjust accordingly.

Re: 2013 non-Colts thread

Lots of coaches are in love with the running back by committee approach, feeling that you are better off giving 3 guys 10 carries each than giving one guy 25 and another guy 5.

If the 25 carry guy stays healthy long enough, you will pay him a ransom, then he's likely to get hurt or decline. The 3 guys getting 10 carries each stay cheap and more likely stay healthy, and if not are replacable at a reasonable cost

The man who loves him some him apparently doesn’t hate the idea of returning to the 49ers this week in a capacity other than player.

The team has announced that Terrell Owens will return on Sunday against the Panthers as an honorary game captain to commemorate his game-winning touchdown catch in the 1998 wild-card playoffs against Green Bay.

That moment has been determined the No. 4 Moment in Candlestick Park history. The 49ers are counting down the top 10 moments throughout the 2013 season.

Owens has said that, if he doesn’t land with a team this year, he’ll retire. He also has called us the devil.

Re: 2013 non-Colts thread

Bruce Arians has the Cardinals sitting at 5-4. They are tied for the amount of games they won last year.

This guy is just a fantastic coach, motivator, and teacher. He can flat out coach, no doubt about it. I think that the NFC is too deep for them to make the playoffs, but they certainly have a chance. I'm rooting for them to do well.

We really did get rid of the wrong coach I believe. It pains me to say that and I empathize with everything Chuck's been through and really like the guy, but it seems we are getting out-coached somewhat a lot of the time. The Colts are still what they were with Caldwell and Dungy even. Conservative and predictable.

I still think that the Pagano philosophy is a major reason that we have been so successful the past two seasons. He laid a foundation in the 2012 training camp that helped us throughout the season when Arians was coaching. And 6-3 this season with all of the injuries is pretty nice, especially when you consider that we beat SF, Seattle, and Denver.

I have voiced numerous complaints about Pagano's situational football decisions, but I'm a huge fan of the guy from an overall philosophy and motivational standpoint. Overall, the team buys what he is selling and guys love playing for him. He has the Dungy factor to him in that department.

Re: 2013 non-Colts thread

It's crazy to think that the Falcons were just one play away from the Super Bowl last year. This team is absolutely disgraceful. I know that losing Julio Jones hurt, but they also weren't winning at the beginning of the season when he played. There's no excuse for this team being this bad.

Re: 2013 non-Colts thread

When their game finally resumes, will the Ravens claim that Goodell "fixed" the weather so that their 10-0 momentum in Chicago would die?

Re: 2013 non-Colts thread

I wonder who the Colts are going to play in the first round. I think it would be great to get a 2nd or 3rd seed because the 6th seed contenders are sucking it up. 4th seed would suck as we wouldn't win that game

Don't ask Marvin Harrison what he did during the bye week. "Batman never told where the Bat Cave is," he explained.

Re: 2013 non-Colts thread

I hope the Lions hold on in Pittsburgh for two reasons: 1) I hate Pitt and 2) I am rooting for the Lions to win that division. It would be cool to see them host a playoff game after all of the torture they have endured as a franchise.
